I'm trying rdesktop on a Raspberry pi using the RPi Thin Client with 
rdesktop version 1.8.2

When I connect to a Windows Server 2012 R2 server running Remote Desktop 
Session. I can connect and everything appears fine except the cursor.

The cursor is a black I-Beam all the time. On the default background, 
this is pretty much invisible.

I also downloaded the 1.8.2 source onto a OpenSUSE 12.3 machine and 
compiled rdesktop. I observe the same results. The command line I used is:

./rdesktop -g 1024x768 -a 16 -d mydomain -u myuser -x b -a 16 servername

I also tried -x l and that didn't make any difference.

I would really like to use rdesktop, but I've got to have a cursor. If 
there are any switches I could use, or if this is fixed in github, 
please let me know.
